Moon Camp Explorers Gallery 2020-2021
In Moon Camp Explorers each team’s mission is to 3D design a complete Moon Camp using Tinkercad. They also have to explain how they will use local resources, protect astronauts from the dangerous of space and describe the living and working facilities.

Project description
Moon lander: The moon lander is where the rocket lands it makes it safer to land. It is a circular shape and it is a bit long. The moon lander is a very important piece. |

Where do you want to build your Moon Camp?
Close to the Lunar Poles Why did you choose this location?
South pole because the temperatures are nicer and better for the human conditions. We decided to build our moon camp inside a crater or volcano, this way we are protected from asteroids and cold temperatures. In addition to this, living on the north pole will allow us to obtain even more energy from the never ending sunset. How do you plan to build your Moon Camp? Which materials would you use?
We would use strong and heavy materials so they wouldn’t float to space. First, we would plan it on paper and then we would build it on the moon. We would bring solar panels and lots of other things and we could use broken parts and lunar minerals to make other things. We would work together. The first thing we would do is to put the rover on the moon with its 3D printer and it will build the first room thanks to this technology. The first room would be the bedroom so they could rest from the space journey and the second room would be the living room in order to provide a living space to eat and watch TV to recover their energy, so they can do their mission. Explain how your Moon Camp will provide the astronauts with:

Water
|
Food
|
Electricity
|
Air
|
There is evidence that under the moon’s surface there is ice so you can turn it into water so you can drink it. It is important to have water so you can drink it. |
We can obtain food by the plants that we have in the green house that we.built.We can plant cherries, potatoes, Lettuce, Sweet Potatoes, ginger, Avocado and Celery. |
In order to obtain all the necessary electrical energy our first energy source are the solar panels,our second energy source is based on thermal energy which obtains the energy from the volcanoes, all the energy will be stored in one big battery. |
On the moon there are several gases such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen and many more, therefore thanks to a machine that converts carbon dioxide to oxygen and carbon we will provide oxygen to the entrance room and then the oxygen will be transported to the rest of the rooms. In addition to this the green house will provide oxygen as a second source . |
